OSC Event: Paul Simpson Q&A

[clive]

a lot of the lads who went today went to the questions and answers event two of my mates who are season ticket holders were told before the event that due to there feelings towards simpson they would not be aloud to put forward any questions
it seems to me the event was some what stage managed to ensure there were no questions that might upset our poor picked on manager sounds like the whole evening was a bit of a simpson pr exercise

Hi Clive, can you find out who said that to them? It does seem strange as all they had to do was put their hand up to ask a question, at times Adam had to fill in with questions that had been emailed in as there were no questions from the floor.

Is this still going to be made available on Shrewsplayer?

yeah, i taped it all but the feed i took from radio shropshire into the camera i forgot to switch it from mic to line so there was no sound on the tape, i'm getting the audio from radio shrops and will marry them up.... hopefully

That is very interesting, why bother asking the club to arrange a q&a if they are going to do that? be interesting to see mrfollmers thoughts on this post? there wasn't much silence to be honest clive, 90 minutes of interesting questions and answers, there were a few interesting questions thrown at the gaffer but one this he does do is answer them all, people might like the answers though.

I wasn't at the q&a event but this does sound a bit daft to stop people asking questions. Its not something that I nor the chairman of the OSC would condone and we're looking into this. I will post back as soon as I have some more info on this matter.

I can confirm that there were two committee members present at the q&a evening and that neither said to anyone that they would be discouraged from asking questions. The contrary in fact is true where at the start of the meeting it was stated that any questions could be fielded to paul and he would answer as honestly as he always does. If anyone knows of any information to the contrary that they would like to bring to light they can PM me on here or contact me through the OSC website http://www.shrewsburytownosc.co.uk
